WIP update

Greg will be here soon, which is why I'm up so early to let him in. I should add that the travel company that arranged his flights and hotels is Orbit, and he flew with Delta twice. ;-)

Since I've been using his computer, I'll have limited time on it from now on. I shall resort to writing down ideas and outlines for my charity WIP on paper; yikes. The charity drawing will however have to wait till I get my own PC back--or a new one--along with my graphics tablet. Here's hoping it's soon, though Easter will probably delay it.

I know I should have got both these things done well before now, but general lassitude and depression plus a lingering cold have not helped. I've just wanted to retreat into books. But they will be done, I assure the recipients! The ideas are finally starting to come, and I'd rather give them both my best.

I hope so too. I feel better now that Greg's back.

It's weird though: I have a chance at a job in the city (at pretty crap pay but if I get it I could apply for other jobs internally) but part of me just wants to stay home and do nothing. The commute and its cost on top of the low pay isn't much of an inventive. But I do need some work and a boost to self-esteem.

Hmm. The job itself doesn't sound great, and I can understand it not inspiring you to go for it. But what it would mean sounds good, both for you and for future prospects. If you can't, you can't, and don't beat yourself up, but I hope you can get up the momentum to go for it. x

It's just above minimum pay rate which really doesn't do much for me. I'd like to turn it down and hope I get something that would make me feel better about myself, but I can't count on that.
